Hey Miguel
That is AWESOME!! My friend, glad to see your efforts paid well.
10 pounds is a trophy for us here in Florida. Very well done, and
on dead bait no less. I've never caught a Peacock on dead bait.
See, you came on this forum to get info and instead you taught
me something
You could probably out fish me with your bamboo and me with
my spinning gear.
Keep it up!!!!
I just got back from my Peacock trip as well, landed over
twenty but got three real nice ones. I used live shiners.
What seemed to work the best were the smaller shiners.
The bigger shiners were enticing the smaller Peacocks,
and the smaller 3 inch shiners were enticing the bigger
lunkers. The best bites were when reeling in the shiners
real fast and then letting them drop, as they wiggled down
the big ones would hammer it hard!Go figure, in fishing, one never knows.
